not the bloodbath i was expecting

Rating: Null/10 (12 February 2004)

** SPOILER **
Having heard from various sources that this was an extreme film, i settled down, fully expecting to be horrified. Whilst there was a fair amount of blood vomiting and unpleasantness from the Infected, it wasn't nearly as bad as i thought it would be. Lovely cinematography, particularly in the shots of abandoned London. The lack of a 'name' also worked well, as the relatively unknown cast seemed to really gel together. Some of the soldier's acting was a little ropey, but good efforts all round.
Plotwise, very dark and disturbing, and not exactly optimistic about the general character of mankind, but an entertaining couple of hours nonetheless.
